After a session where I went into PG3 and looked at ELK where it reported no nodes (not sure why), I went ahead and shutdown Eisy and restarted.
When all came back up, ELK reporting 38 nodes instead of the 39 I had seen earlier. The only thing Jim could conclude was that when I had switched the light setting to NONE, it reduced a node. My guess, my assumption, is that my incorrect setting caused issues. That exterior battery powered motion sensor was the highest number in my connected sensors.
It is also possible, I am guessing, that my batteries could have been weak in that sensor.
So after switching out the batteries and setting that variable in ELK correctly, the exterior motion sensor is reporting correctly. It even reports the opening of the sensor as OPEN and Violated vs SHRT and Violated.
So, it's corrected now and Eisy will turn on the back porch light when it sees the motion sensor violated as it should.
Small steps......
Happy to finally be off the ISY994i to get things moving. I hated to leave it as it was totally solid but having UD Mobile and more options is great in Eisy.
Thanks, Jim, for your support!
